Guidebook to the Hebridean Way, a 155-mile (247km) trail across 10 of Scotland's Outer Hebrides islands. This waymarked, multi-day route is ideal for a fortnight's exploration, using mostly low-level paths and crossing a variety of terrain, from dazzling white shell beaches to rugged hills and wild moors.

  • 10 daily stages of 10–22 miles (16–35km) in length, with optional 30-mile (48km) extension from Stornoway to the Butt of Lewis, which takes two days
  • Clear route descriptions with 1:50,000 maps and details of refreshments, public transport and accommodation
  • Includes notes on geology, history, plants and wildlife, and a glossary of Gaelic and Norse placenames
